Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
(2024·海南高三校考)Levon Biss was looking at insects from his garden through a microscope he bought for his son. For fun, they unintentionally placed an insect under the lens (镜片). “It is amazingly beautiful!” they both screamed.
The father had been making a career taking photographs for advertisements. But that experience gave him a new direction. Around the world, insect populations are in decline because of habitat loss and climate change. Biss thought that if people could see what he saw through his son's microscope, they would care more about protecting insects.
So Biss turned to macrophotography: taking close-up pictures of small things, like flowers or bugs. His work has attracted attention not just for its unusual beauty. It also raises awareness about the need for conservation.
In 2016, Biss showed his first insect project, Microsculpture. The term refers to the features of an insect's exoskeleton, or outer shell, which develops over time as the bug adapts to its environment.
Biss's pictures capture the insects in all their microscopic details. Then he blows up the images until the insects become larger than life, some of them eight feet tall. But each image takes weeks to make. He uses a digital camera with a microscope lens. The camera is fixed on a computerized track, which allows Biss to take a shot, then move the camera by seven microns (微米) — a distance equals to about 1/10 the thickness of a human hair — for the next shot. In the end, Biss might take 10,000 shots of a bug. A computer combines these small pictures into a single image.
Biss's latest exhibition is Extinct and Endangered at the American Museum of Natural History. He selected bugs that were extinct or endangered, hoping his photographs would serve as a better purpose. “I communicate visually,” he says, “The way I work is through pictures. But I think it's my duty to shake things up and get people to pay attention.”

(2024·广东名校模拟)More than 85% of the world's bird and animal species live in mountains, particularly in forest habitats, but researchers report in the journal One Earth on March 17 that these forests are disappearing at an accelerating rate.
Though their uneven location once protected mountain forests from deforestation, they have been increasingly exploited as lowland areas become depleted. A team of scientists led by Xinyue He, Dominick Spracklen and Joseph Holden at Leeds University in the United Kingdom, and Zhenzhong Zeng at the Southern University of Science and Technology in China wanted to investigate the extent and global distribution of mountain forest loss.
To do this, the team tracked changes in mountain forests on a yearly basis from 2001 to 2018. They quantified both losses and gains in tree cover, estimated the rate at which change is occurring, compared different charts and types of mountain forests — boreal, temperate, tropical — and explored the impacts of this forest loss on biodiversity.
They found that logging was the biggest driver of mountain forest loss overall (42%), followed by wildfires (29%), shifting or “slash-and-burn” cultivation (15%), and permanent or semi-permanent agriculture (10%), though the importance of these different factors varied from region to region. Significant loss occurred in Asia, South America, Africa, Europe, and Australia, but not in North America and Oceania.
Worryingly, the rate of mountain forest loss seems to be accelerating: the annual rate of loss increased by 50% from 2001-2009 to 2010-2018, when we lost approximately 5.2 million hectares of mountain forests per year. The authors write that this acceleration is probably largely due to rapid agricultural expansion into highland areas in mainland Southeast Asia, as well as increased logging of mountain forests either due to decrease of lowland forests or because these lowland forests became protected.
“Any new measure to protect mountain forests should be adapted to local conditions and contexts and need to reconcile (兼顾) the need for enhanced forest protection with ensuring food production and human well-being.” the authors write.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了野生动物赖以生存的山地森林面积损失严重及科学家对其进行的细致的研究和分析。
5.What do we know about the report in One Earth?
A.It focuses on birds and animals.
B.It is written by an Englishman.
C.It's about mountain forests.
D.It deals with the endangered species.
解析:细节理解题。根据第一段内容可知,该报告关注的是山地森林的消失。
√
6.What does the underlined word “depleted” probably mean in paragraph 2?
A.Raised. B.Expanded.
C.Divided. D.Reduced.
解析:词义猜测题。根据第二段第一句可知,人们转向开发地势不平坦的山地,是因为低洼地区已被开发殆尽,故推测depleted意为“耗尽,减少”。
√
7.Which of the following accounts for most of the mountain forest loss?
A.People's cutting down trees.
B.Strongly burning forest fires.
C.People's traditional farming method.
D.High frequency of extreme weather.
解析:细节理解题。根据第四段第一句可知,人们砍伐树木造成了最严重的山林损失。
√
8.What is probably the best title for the text?
A.Mountain Forests Are Being Lost at Increasing Speed
B.Rapidly-Lost Mountain Forests Put Wildlife at Risk
C.Protecting Mountain Forests Benefits Human Well-Being
D.Forest Protection Ensures Food Production for Humans
√
解析:标题归纳题。根据第一段并结合下文科学家通过调查研究得出的山地森林损失的具体数据可知,本文主要介绍了山地森林面积损失加剧并分析了具体原因。
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
(2024·长沙模拟)In the face of wildlife loss and habitat destruction, it's easy to feel powerless to improve. But any action you take, no matter how small, will help restore the world to its natural balance. Here are 4 things you can do to help wildlife.
Think twice before landscaping.
9 But unless you're confronting a genuine safety issue, remember that what's unpleasant to you is sweet home to squirrels, birds, worms and other animals that you might not even know are there. If you must landscape your yard, do so in a way that won't drive away native wildlife.
Keep your cats indoors.
It's ironic that many people who claim to love wildlife have no problem allowing their cats to roam freely outside. Cats are animals, too. 10 Outdoor cats, however, don't think twice about killing wild birds. In case you're thinking about “warning” the birds by attaching a bell to your cat's collar, don't bother: Birds have an inborn tendency to flee loud, startling noises, not jingling pieces of metal.
Don't feed any animals but birds.
That deer that wanders into your backyard might look hungry and helpless. 11 Giving food to animals accustoms them to human contact, but not all human beings are as warmhearted as you are. Feeding wild birds, on the other hand, is OK as long as you don't have outdoor cats and you provide a meal in keeping with the bird's natural diet. 12
Clean up litter (not only your own).
If you're concerned about protecting wildlife, you know better than to litter. But it's not enough to keep your own yard or picnic area clean. You should go the extra mile and pick up cans and bottles left by other people. 13
A.Choose nuts and seeds rather than processed bread.
B.It seems cruel to keep them shut up inside the house.
C.However, if you feed it, you won't be doing it any favors.
D.Most people don't want wild animals to destroy their roses.
E.Small animals can easily get trapped in or injured by this litter.
F.If you have the space, establishing a “mini meadow (草地)” as a border or boundary area is another effective way to attract birds, as well as beneficial insects.
G.If you have just purchased a house or a piece of land, you might be tempted to chop (砍) down unsightly trees.
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了帮助野生动物,你可以做到的四件事。
9.选G 结合小标题“Think twice before landscaping.”与最后一句可知,本段是建议大家在改造住所时,要考虑到对周围野生动物的影响。由下文But可知,上下文是转折关系。G选项“如果你刚买了房子或者一块地,你可能会忍不住去砍倒那些难看的树木”符合,其中的“chop down unsightly trees”就是landscape的具体做法。
10.选B 根据下句中however可知,前后句子是转折关系。选项B“把它们关在屋子里似乎很残忍”符合,且选项中keep them shut up inside the house呼应本段标题“Keep your cats indoors.”。
11.选C 根据本段小标题“Don't feed any animals but birds.”可知要保护动物,我们就要克制住给野生动物喂食的想法。结合前句可知,跑到你家后院来的野生鹿看起来很饿和很无助,但是也不应该喂它们,C项“然而,如果你喂它,你就不会对它有任何好处”符合文意,呼应本段主题。
12.选A 根据前句可知,给野生鸟类喂养与它们食谱中一致的食物是可以的,那就意味着尽量给它们喂食纯天然未经加工的东西,A项“ 选择坚果和种子而不是加工过的面包”符合文意。
13.选E 本段的小标题“Clean up litter (not only your own).”告诉我们,要保护野生动物,我们要做的不仅是随时清理自己产生的垃圾。上文指出我们要捡起别人留下的易拉罐和瓶子,空处承接上文,指出这么做的原因,即能保护野生动物,E项“小动物很容易被这些垃圾困住或受伤”符合文意。
Ⅲ.完形填空
(2024·南通模拟)The suburb I live in backs onto a large nature reserve. One morning I saw a koala sitting in a palm tree in my front yard. I phoned around to ask what I could 14 this koala, but no one wanted to know. I ended up 15 the koala out of my tree and we crossed the road 16 for him to return to the nature reserve.
I've always been befriending animals. As a young kid I used to pick up lizard eggs and 17 them. It stimulated my interest as to why there wasn't anyone wanting to come and 18 this koala in my tree. After that, I signed up for all the 19 I could find.
Once I had accreditation (合格证), I volunteered with the RSPCA in 2014, rehabilitating (使康复) wildlife. I was an ambulance driver, 20 overnight rescues. We rescued hundreds of animals and 21 more.
One day, I thought why not 22 my own rescue group focusing on my backyard? I purchased a two-acre property and built enclosures on it to 23 injured animals. Last year, I planted 300 eucalyptus trees(桉树), with seven varieties to 24 the koalas.
I cut the leaves of the eucalyptus trees for the koalas to eat and look after the 25 wildlife at our centre. If they recover, they are 26 back to where they come from.
As a kid I would never have imagined doing this. I feel like I'm the 27 girl on the planet that I get to do what I love. I believe it's my 28 .
